Been hard to ride lately

[Bagger Dan]

The issues with my back along with the Africa-hot heat we've had in Texas this summer. Hopefully the fall will bring better riding weather and some pain relief. I can't have surgery until at least the end of the year, and I can't wait for that.

I'd take that heat.

The heat's gone, but the back is still a work in progress....

I'm currently at week 16 recovering from shoulder surgery. Super Supraspinatus Tendon full tear reattached. The doc also removed a bone spur, cleaned out some arthritis, and apparently repaired the bicep tendon too. The worst is over, but still doing PT to improve range. Still have difficulty reaching top shelves, and can reach behind me pull my bell through the loops. Hoping to ride by Memorial Weekend, but not rushing it.

Welcome to my hogsty, Mike!!!!

I've got plenty of room for you to park that camper-bus thingy here. We can commiserate over some cigars and bourbon.

For the belt problem I have two words: Overalls

[Margarita]

Sympathy on the surgery and best wishes for complete recovery.

[ScabbyDoo]

Did someone say 'cigars and bourbon'?

[TXHawg]

They go together very well
